And if you can, what type of antenna? I can only pull in the local channels with this antenna, it’s mounted in my upstairs office high on the wall, I can mount it outside if I want, like up on the chimney…

I’ve heard with a big outdoor antenna you can pull CBC HD out of Toronto, but you’ll never do it with an indoor.

i get them with my DB4

I know they market the DB4 as an “indoor/outdoor” antenna, but that’s one hideous looking antenna to have in your house.

I wondering if I could pull in CBC HD with one mounted in my attic? What Canadian HD channels are you getting? How is your antenna setup?

That depends where your attic is pointed.

I have a very similar antenna mounted on a mini dish arm, and wasn’t able to get canada, but I did see everything else.

I’ll have an antenna up for sale in a week or so, probably let it go for 30 bucks or so, Its the exact same as what Jay posted here, if anybody wants it come pick it up in west seneca.

The only reason i’m getting rid of the antenna is that I now pickup qam hdtv over time warner.
